As always, every penny the Auxiliary raises goes directly back into helping Veterans, Post 1136 cost-sharing for repairs and improvements, fundraisers for National and Department programs, and supporting Veterans and their families in YOUR community. In the last month alone your Auxiliary has raised over $2,000 with our weekly Lions watch party meals, raffles, fundraising, and more. Those funds helped in the following ways this month.
